Flamingoes are graceful, social birds found in warm, wet habitats across the globe. Their pink or reddish feathers and long, slender legs are unmistakable. Flamingoes are filter feeders, sifting through mud to find their favorite food, algae. They use their long, curved beaks to strain out the tasty morsels they enjoy. Flamingoes also flock together in large groups, and are known for their unusual courtship rituals and dancing.
